Subclaims¶

q2 i? Mean usage times of UDL-guided elements differ considerably across the six clusters; Cluster 2 is distinguished by extended text and video usage, Cluster 3 by extended use of tasks with assistance, and Cluster 0 and 3 also show prolonged text usage. → Marvin Roski 2024

Comparison of mean usage times across the six k-means clusters (Fig. 3, z-standardized in Fig. 4) of the log-file study of 384 learners. The article reports "notable disparities in usage duration" between Cluster 2 and Cluster 1, with Cluster 2 standing out for extended text and video usage and Cluster 3 for extended use of tasks with assistance.

"Despite the limited size of Cluster 2, which is comprised of only seven learners, notable disparities in usage duration are evident, particularly when compared to Cluster 1. Obviously, learners in Cluster 2 invest particularly more time in UDL-guided elements."

Related Claims¶

• K-means clustering on EFA-derived features yields six learner groups with distinct usage patterns of UDL-guided elements — related
• Exploratory factor analysis of 384 learners' log data identifies four factors in usage of UDL-guided elements, indicating learners remain consistent in decisions such as video vs. text and tasks with or without help — related
• The largest cluster of learners invests minimally in the platform and shows almost no gain in conceptual knowledge — related
